Arizona SB1240 amends probation services funding to incentivize successful probation completion.
Arizona SB1240 amends state aid for probation services by calculating incentive payments for counties based on probation success rates. The administrative office of the courts determines payments by comparing the number of probationers successfully prevented from entering prison to historical baselines, multiplied by a percentage of the marginal cost of incarceration. Counties use these payments to improve probation services, focusing on evidence-based practices, risk assessments, and rehabilitation programs.
